Cover Crops: A Multifunctional Strategy for Sustainable Agriculture
In a context where sustainability is becoming increasingly essential, cover crops (CC) are emerging as a recommended and often necessary
In season supplementary fertilisation of maize
In years with high precipitation early in the growing season, there may be a need for supplementary fertilisa-tion in maize
Utilisation of nutrients in slurry from biogas plants
When slurry is processed in a biogas plant, organic nitrogen (N) is partially mineralised to ammonium (NH4+), which increases the
Plant Counts for Accurate Yield Estimation and Optimised Nitrogen Application
Unlike wheat, barleys yield potential is largely set early in the growing season, depending on the number of tillers produced
Phosphorus Use in Spring Barley
On arable farms Phosphorous is essential for high yielding crops. It is essential for fruit and seed production through its
Use of liquid pig slurry on a potato farm
Pig slurry is a valuable fertiliser in potato farming, improving soil structure, nutrient supply, and crop rotation efficiency. Potatoes are
Growing Catch Crops
Catch crops are a sustainable practice that improves nutrient management and soil structure. Sown after the main crop, they absorb
The principles of crop fertilization plan development according to LAMMC
The principles of crop fertilization plan development according to LAMMC involve several key steps. First, the crop fertilization plan is
Effectiveness of crop rotation and tillage systems in loamy Cambisol
Crop rotations with legumes are more productive. The study was carried out in two four-field rotations: A) rotation I: beans
Realising maize productivity between mineral and organic fertilisers
Supporting farmers in selecting the most suitable nitrogen source is essential for balancing crop productivity with environmental sustainability. Trials comparing
